All 4 Daihatsu Tanto Generations
Each generation deals in its rarity tier’s alloy with its engine disc, lead specs, and first spotter record. Click into any generation for full trims and market figures.

Dealers had orders for 37,000 Tantos within a month, nearly three times Daihatsu's monthly sales target.

The third-gen Tanto's party trick is a pillar that rides along with the door itself — Daihatsu's "Miracle Open Door" system gives the tiny kei car huge, pillarless openings on both sides.

This Tanto has two completely different rear doors: a normal hinged one on the right, and on the left a sliding door that swallows its own B-pillar — Daihatsu called it the "Miracle Open Door."

The original Tanto skipped manuals entirely — every first-generation kei car, naturally aspirated or turbo, left the factory with an automatic only.
